" cxxx. ' Queria perdoar-lhe o Rei benino, Movido das palavras, que o magoam ; Mas o pertinaz povo, e seu destino (Que desta sorte o quiz) Ihe nao perdoam : Arrancam das espadas de ago fino Os, que por bom tal feito alii apregoam. Contra huma dama, 6 peitos carniceiros, Feros vos amostrais, e cavalleiros?
cxxxi. * Qual contra a linda moga Polyxena, Consolagao extrema da mai velha ; Porque a sombra de Achilles a condena, Co'o ferro o duro Pyrrho se apparelha : Mas ella os olhos, com que o ar ser...ena (Bem como paciente, e mansa ovelha), Na misera mai postos, que endoudece, Ao duro sacrificio se offerece : CANTO III. THE LUSIADS. 179 CXXVIII.
' " And if victorious in the Moorish strife, Thou knowest to deal death with sword and fire, In clemency to her deal also life, AVho has not erred, its forfeit to require ; But if so much deserve this innocent wife, Force me to lasting exile to retire, In frozen Scythia or 'neath Lybia's sky, There let me weep out wretched life and die !
cxxix. '" Place me where beasts of prey infest the ground, 'Midst lions I shall know, and tiger kind, If, among them, that pity can be found, "Which among human breasts I cannot find ; There will I with eternal love be bound To him for whom I die, in heart and mind.
